CIGNA Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2007 Results
CIGNA Corporation (NYSE:CI) today reported net income of $263 million,
or $0.93 per share1, for the fourth quarter of
2007 compared with $232 million, or $0.76 per share1,2,
for the same period last year.
For full year 2007, net income was $1.12 billion, or $3.87 per share1,2,
compared with $1.16 billion, or $3.43 per share1,2,
in 2006.
CIGNA's adjusted income from operations3 was
$277 million, or $0.98 per share1, for the
fourth quarter of 2007 versus $266 million, or $0.87 per share1,2,
for the same period last year.
For full year 2007, adjusted income from operations3
was $1.14 billion, or $3.96 per share1,2,
compared with $1.06 billion, or $3.15 per share1,2,
in 2006.
"Our consolidated results for 2007 reflect our
continued success in delivering quality health and wellness services to
customers and consumers around the globe,”
said CIGNA Chairman and Chief Executive Officer H. Edward Hanway. "In
2007, our health care business grew earnings and gained market share
through solid execution of the fundamentals and our differentiated
products and capabilities. In addition, our group disability and life
and international businesses delivered competitively strong top-line and
bottom-line results. We expect to continue this success in 2008 and
beyond as we further our mission to become the leading health services
company, dedicated to improving the health, well-being, and security of
the people we serve.” CONSOLIDATED HIGHLIGHTS

HIGHLIGHTS OF SEGMENT RESULTS "Adjusted segment earnings (loss)”
are adjusted income (loss) from operations3,
as applicable, for each segment (see Exhibit 2).
Health Care
This segment includes medical and specialty health care products and
services provided on guaranteed cost, retrospectively experience-rated
and service-only funding bases. Specialty health care includes
behavioral, dental, disease management and pharmacy-related products
and services.

Adjusted segment earnings included unfavorable after-tax prior year
claim development of $2 million for fourth quarter 2007 and favorable
after-tax prior year claim development of $8 million for full year
2007. Fourth quarter 2006 and third quarter 2007 included favorable
after-tax prior year claim development of $11 million and $5 million,
respectively. Excluding prior year claim development, full-year 2007
adjusted segment earnings continue to reflect the favorable impact of
our guaranteed cost pricing strategy and effective operating expense
management. Fourth quarter 2007 adjusted segment earnings reflect
lower experience-rated margins.
Premiums and fees increased by approximately 3% relative to fourth
quarter 2006, primarily reflecting growth in specialty and Medicare
Part D.
Disability and Life
This segment includes CIGNA’s group
disability, life, and accident insurance operations that are managed
separately from the health care business.

workers compensation products, partially offset by lower results in
the Guaranteed Minimum Income Benefit (GMIB) business, primarily
reflecting equity market declines and lower interest rates.
OUTLOOK
CIGNA currently estimates full year 2008 consolidated adjusted income
from operations3,10 to be in the range of
$1.165 billion to $1.225 billion, or $4.05 to $4.25 per share1.
CIGNA currently estimates full year 2008 adjusted income from
operations3,10 for the Health Care segment
to be in the range of $740 million to $780 million.
CIGNA's 2008 adjusted income from operations (as further described in
Note 10) will be defined as income from continuing operations
excluding realized investment results, the GMIB business results, and
special items.
CIGNA’s earnings and earnings per share1
outlooks exclude the impacts of any future stock repurchase and the
pending acquisition of Great-West Healthcare.
Full year 2008 medical membership is expected to grow by 2% to 5%.
This estimate excludes the impact of membership growth related to the
pending acquisition of Great-West Healthcare.
Management will provide additional information about the 2008 earnings
outlook on CIGNA's fourth quarter 2007 earnings call.
The foregoing statements represent management’s
current estimate of CIGNA's 2008 consolidated and Health Care segment
adjusted income from operations3,10 as of the
date of this release. Actual results may differ materially depending on
a number of factors, and investors are urged to read the Cautionary
Statement included in this release for a description of those factors.
Management does not assume any obligation to update these estimates.
This quarterly earnings release and the Quarterly Statistical Supplement
are available on CIGNA’s website in the
Investor Relations, Most Recent Disclosures section (www.cigna.com/about_us/investor_relations/recent_disclosures.html).
A link to the conference call, on which management will review fourth
quarter and full year 2007 results and discuss 2008 outlook, is
available in the Investor Relations, Event Calendar section of CIGNA’s
website (www.cigna.com/about_us/investor_relations/events.html).
Notes:
1. Earnings per share (EPS) are on a diluted basis.
2. On April 25, 2007, CIGNA's Board of Directors declared a
three-for-one stock split of the company's common shares, in the
form of a stock dividend, to all shareholders of record on May 21,
2007. All share and earnings per share figures have been adjusted
to reflect the three-for-one stock split, which was effective June
4, 2007.
3. CIGNA measures the financial results of its segments using
Segment Earnings (Loss), which is defined as income (loss) from
continuing operations excluding realized investment results.
Adjusted income (loss) from operations is segment earnings (loss)
excluding special items (which are identified and quantified in
Note 4). Adjusted income (loss) from operations is a measure of
profitability used by CIGNA's management because it presents the
underlying results of operations of CIGNA's businesses and permits
analysis of trends in underlying revenue, expenses and net income.
This measure is not determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be viewed as
a substitute for the most directly comparable GAAP measures, which
are segment earnings (loss), income from continuing operations,
and net income. See Exhibit 2 for a reconciliation of adjusted
income (loss) from operations to segment earnings (loss), income
from continuing operations, and consolidated net income. See
footnote 10, for definition of adjusted income (loss) from
operations for 2008 and beyond.
4. Special items included in net income and segment earnings
(loss), but excluded from adjusted income (loss) from operations,
adjusted segment earnings, and the calculation of segment margins
are:
Third Quarter 2007 -- After-tax benefit of $23 million related to completion of an
IRS examination (described in more detail in CIGNA's Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended September 30, 2007). Year ended December 31, 2007 -- After-tax charge of $56 million to increase reserves based
on changes to assumptions for annuitization election rates and
policy lapse rates under agreements that reinsure guaranteed
minimum income benefit contracts issued by other insurance
companies. This was partially offset by an after-tax benefit of
$23 million related to completion of an IRS examination (described
in more detail in CIGNA's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
September 30, 2007).
Fourth Quarter 2006 -- After-tax charge of $25 million resulting from settlement of
the shareholder class-action lawsuit.
-- After-tax charge of $23 million related to CIGNA's
continuing efforts to improve operating efficiency in its Health
Care operations and supporting areas.
5. The discontinued operations included in net income are:
Third Quarter 2007 -- Primarily due to an after-tax benefit of $2 million related
to completion of an IRS examination (described in more detail in
CIGNA's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007).
Year ended December 31, 2007 -- Primarily due to a $23 million loss associated with the sale
of operations in Chile, partially offset by a $16 million
after-tax gain associated with the disposition of certain
real-estate investments and an after-tax benefit of $2 million
related to completion of an IRS examination (described in more
detail in CIGNA's Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30,
2007).
6. Health care medical claims payable are presented net of
reinsurance and other recoverables. The gross health care medical
claims payable balance was $975 million as of December 31, 2007
and $960 million as of December 31, 2006.
7. Repurchases were also made and may from time to time be made
pursuant to written trading plans under Rule 10b5-1, which permit
shares to be repurchased when CIGNA might otherwise be precluded
from doing so under insider trading laws or because of
self-imposed trading blackout periods.
8. Segment margins in this press release are calculated by
dividing adjusted segment earnings by segment revenues. Segment
margins including special items for Health Care were 5.4% for the
three months ended December 31, 2006. Segment margins including
special items for Disability and Life were 9.7% for the three
months ended September 30, 2007 and 9.1% for the year ended
December 31, 2007. Segment margins including special items for
International were 10.4% for the three months ended September 30,
2007 and 9.3% for the year ended December 31, 2007.
9. Effective January 1, 2007, CIGNA changed its segment
presentation to report the results of the Run-off Retirement
business within Other Operations. Prior period results have been
restated to conform to the new segment presentation.
10. Beginning in 2008, adjusted income (loss) from operations will
be defined as income from continuing operations excluding realized
investment results, the GMIB business results, and special items.
The 2008 GMIB results are expected to include charges associated
with the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 157, entitled "Fair Value Measurements", which clarifies the
measurement of and expands disclosures regarding the fair valuing
of certain assets and liabilities. Management's current estimate
of the first quarter 2008 after-tax charge associated with the
implementation of SFAS 157 is in the range of $125 million to $150
million. Although the implementation and prospective application
of SFAS 157 has no economic impact on CIGNA, changes in interest
rates, stock market volatility, and other factors may result in
changes to the fair value assumptions, which could result in a
material adverse or favorable impact on the Run-off Reinsurance
segment and CIGNA's results of operations in the first quarter of
2008 and other future periods. For example, based on the interest
rate changes, stock market volatility, and other factors that
existed on January 31, 2008, CIGNA would have recorded an
after-tax charge of approximately $50 million related to the GMIB
business in its Run-off Reinsurance segment. Information is not
available for management (1) to identify or reasonably estimate
additional 2008 special items or (2) to reasonably estimate future
realized investment gains (losses) or the GMIB business results
due in part to interest rate and stock market volatility and other
internal and external factors; therefore it is not possible to
provide a forward-looking reconciliation of adjusted income from
operations to income from continuing operations. CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF
THE "SAFE
HARBOR”
PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE
SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
CIGNA and its representatives may from time to time make written and
oral forward-looking statements, including statements contained in press
releases, in CIGNA’s filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, in its reports to shareholders and
in meetings with analysts and investors. Forward-looking statements may
contain information about financial prospects, economic conditions,
trends and other uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are
based on management’s beliefs and assumptions
and on information available to management at the time the statements
are or were made. Forward-looking statements include but are not limited
to the information concerning possible or assumed future business
strategies, financing plans, competitive position, potential growth
opportunities, potential operating performance improvements, trends,
and, in particular, CIGNA’s productivity
initiatives, litigation and other legal matters, operational improvement
in the health care operations, and the outlook for CIGNA’s
full year 2007 and 2008 results. Forward-looking statements include all
statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the
use of forward-looking terminology such as the words "believe”,
"expect”, "plan”,
"intend”, "anticipate”,
"estimate”, "predict”,
"potential”, "may”,
"should” or
similar expressions.
You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
CIGNA cautions that actual results could differ materially from those
that management expects, depending on the outcome of certain factors.
Some factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
the forward-looking statements include:
1.
increased medical costs that are higher than anticipated in
establishing premium rates in CIGNA’s
health care operations, including increased use and costs of medical
services;
2.
increased medical, administrative, technology or other costs
resulting from new legislative and regulatory requirements imposed
on CIGNA’s employee benefits businesses;
3.
challenges and risks associated with implementing operational
improvement initiatives and strategic actions in the health care
operations, including those related to: (i) offering products that
meet emerging market needs, (ii) strengthening underwriting and
pricing effectiveness, (iii) strengthening medical cost and medical
membership results, (iv) delivering quality member and provider
service using effective technology solutions, and (v) lowering
administrative costs;
4.
risks associated with pending and potential state and federal class
action lawsuits, purported securities class action lawsuits,
disputes regarding reinsurance arrangements, other litigation and
regulatory actions challenging CIGNA’s
businesses and the outcome of pending government proceedings and
federal tax audits;
5.
heightened competition, particularly price competition, which could
reduce product margins and constrain growth in CIGNA’s
businesses, primarily the health care business;
6.
significant changes in interest rates;
7.
downgrades in the financial strength ratings of CIGNA’s
insurance subsidiaries, which could, among other things, adversely
affect new sales and retention of current business;
8.
limitations on the ability of CIGNA’s
insurance subsidiaries to dividend capital to the parent company as
a result of downgrades in the subsidiaries’
financial strength ratings, changes in statutory reserve or capital
requirements or other financial constraints;
9.
inability of the program adopted by CIGNA to substantially reduce
equity market risks for reinsurance contracts that guarantee minimum
death benefits under certain variable annuities (including possible
market difficulties in entering into appropriate futures contracts
and in matching such contracts to the underlying equity risk);
10
adjustments to the reserve assumptions (including lapse, partial
surrender, mortality, interest rates and volatility) used in
estimating CIGNA’s liabilities for
reinsurance contracts covering guaranteed minimum death benefits
under certain variable annuities;
11.
adjustments to the assumptions (including annuity election rates and
reinsurance recoverables) used in estimating CIGNA’s
assets and liabilities for reinsurance contracts that guarantee
minimum income benefits under certain variable annuities;
12.
significant stock market declines, which could, among other things,
result in increased pension expenses of CIGNA’s
pension plan in future periods and the recognition of additional
pension obligations;
13.
unfavorable claims experience related to workers’
compensation and personal accident exposures of the run-off
reinsurance business, including losses attributable to the inability
to recover claims from retrocessionaires;
14.
significant deterioration in economic conditions, which could have
an adverse effect on CIGNA’s operations
and investments;
15.
changes in public policy and in the political environment, which
could affect state and federal law, including legislative and
regulatory proposals related to health care issues, which could
increase cost and affect the market for CIGNA’s
health care products and services; and amendments to income tax
laws, which could affect the taxation of employer provided benefits,
and pension legislation, which could increase pension cost;
16.
potential public health epidemics and bio-terrorist activity, which
could, among other things, cause CIGNA’s
covered medical and disability expenses, pharmacy costs and
mortality experience to rise significantly, and cause operational
disruption, depending on the severity of the event and number of
individuals affected;
17.
risks associated with security or interruption of information
systems, which could, among other things, cause operational
disruption;
18.
challenges and risks associated with the successful management of
CIGNA’s outsourcing projects or key
vendors, including the agreement with IBM for provision of
technology infrastructure and related services;
19.
the ability of the parties to satisfy conditions to the closing of
the Great-West transaction, including obtaining required regulatory
approvals;
20.
the ability to successfully integrate and operate the businesses
being acquired from Great-West by, among other things, renewing
insurance and administrative services contracts on competitive
terms, retaining and growing membership, realizing revenue, expense
and other synergies, successfully leveraging the information
technology platform of the acquired businesses, and retaining key
personnel;
21.
the ability of CIGNA to execute its growth plans by successfully
leveraging its capabilities and those of the business being acquired
from Great-West to further enhance the combined organization’s
network access position, underwriting effectiveness, delivery of
quality member and provider service, and increased penetration of
its membership base with differentiated product offerings; and
22.
any adverse effect to CIGNA's business or the business being
acquired from Great-West due to uncertainty relating to the
acquisition transactions.
This list of important factors is not intended to be exhaustive. Other
sections of CIGNA’s most recent Annual Report
on Form 10-K, including the "Risk Factors”
section, the Cautionary Statement in Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, CIGNA's Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2007,
June 30, 2007, and September 30, 2007, and other documents filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission include both expanded discussion
of these factors and additional risk factors and uncertainties that
could preclude CIGNA from realizing the forward-looking statements.
CIGNA does not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking
statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise, except as required by law.
